Kandy I see that and have tried it, this is what it shows!!
One should should pay Vcash for the confirmation of the team, till then anyone can try for the same team.
Managers should post his squad in 2 days after all the teams sold out,
else the manager will be disqualified and the team will be set in auction again.
Check first post every time you visit


Now what I expected was something saying that 5 DOM must be in the starting XI, until now I have not heard or seen that rule.

0.2  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, That wasn't a bad ball, but the batsmen went at it with everything except the kitchen sink, and got enough on it to send it over the fence! 6 more!  (6) 
0.3  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, , No Ball. Sloppy fielding, the batsmen were content with one but end up getting two.  (2) 
0.3  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, He's hit that high and hard...the fielder is coming underneath it...will he catch it? NOOOO! He spills the chance! And to add insult to injury, the ball rolls away for four runs. The bowler is fuming!  (4) 
0.4  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, He tried to go over the top but doesn't connect well. However, it's placed in the gap the ball trickles away for four.  (4) 
0.5  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, Full, almost yorker-length delivery outside offstump. Th batsman drives it hard and square of the wicket. Two more.  (2) 
0.6  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, Good short ball, the batsman is caught off guard and top edges it high in the air! The keeper is after it...he's runs hard...and the ball lands just after him! He drops a glove and hurls the ball in to keep the batsman to just a single.  (1)

2.2  D.BOLLINGER to A.STRAUSS, Tucked away to the leg side, they're running hard, but only manage a single.Edged and through the vacant third slip region. Just after the skipper had removed a man from that region. Don't you just hate that? One run.  (1)

0.1  U.GUL to D.JACOBS, That was a very good delivery.  (0) 
0.2  U.GUL to D.JACOBS, Slapped away through the offside for a glorious boundary! Lovely shot. The captain's fuming now and removes a man from third slip to cover that region.  (4) 
0.3  U.GUL to D.JACOBS, The batsman lines up for a big slog over cow corner, but gets an inside edge, which scoots past the stumps and the keeper for four runs! The bowler has a wry smile, if the batsman keeps that up, it won't be too long till he's back in the pavillion...  (4) 
0.4  U.GUL to D.JACOBS, Full and on the toes, the batsman just flicks it past the now-vacant short fine leg region for four runs! The captain is fuming, and it's right after he took the fielder out of there!  (4) 
0.5  U.GUL to D.JACOBS, Tucked on the off side, two more to the total.  (2) 
0.6  U.GUL to D.JACOBS, Full delivery outside off-stump, the batsman clears his left leg and swings, and cracks it up and over midwicket for six! Great shot, tremendous power!  (6)

3.5  CJ DE VILLIERS to S.AFRIDI, For all the Americans out there, that's the cricketing equivalent of a Home-Run. Nice stuff. Six.  (6) 
3.6  CJ DE VILLIERS to S.AFRIDI, He's slogged that down to cow corner. Long on runs in to field, and the batsmen get two. The captain is clearly not very happy with his fielder's effort there.  (2)

5.1  CJ DE VILLIERS to S.AFRIDI, Scorching bouncer, the batsman clearly didn't expect that and just sways out of the way at the last moment!  (0) 
5.2  CJ DE VILLIERS to S.AFRIDI, The batsman lines up for a big slog over cow corner, but gets an inside edge, which scoots past the stumps and the keeper for four runs! The bowler has a wry smile, if the batsman keeps that up, it won't be too long till he's back in the pavillion...  (4) 
5.3  CJ DE VILLIERS to S.AFRIDI, Very well bowled.  (0) 
5.4  CJ DE VILLIERS to S.AFRIDI, , No Ball. Down the track and driven through midwicket. There is no fielder in the deep so Long On has to run around to field it, and so in the meanwhile the batsmen get three. Poor bowling but good placement.  (3) 
5.4  CJ DE VILLIERS to M.HAFEEZ, Great bowling, poor shot, and a regulation catch. Soft dismissal there.

10.5  T.DILSHAN to R.SARWAN, He walks across his stumps trying to paddle it away, but misses it. And the keeper's appealing! There was a sound as the ball passed the batsman, and the umpire is unmoved. Replays show it was off the pad. Good call.  (0)

18.2  K.ROACH to T.DILSHAN, Lovely late cut through the vacant third man region. Four more.  (4) 
18.3  K.ROACH to T.DILSHAN, Splendid shot for four!  (4) 
18.4  K.ROACH to T.DILSHAN, Full and on the toes, the batsman just flicks it past the now-vacant short fine leg region for four runs! The captain is fuming, and it's right after he took the fielder out of there!  (4) 
18.5  K.ROACH to T.DILSHAN, Chipped, and lands safe. Two runs in the mean while.  (2) 
18.6  K.ROACH to T.DILSHAN, Full, wide, the batsman slashes hard at it and edges it straight to second slip! Out!
